Hidden Scotland – Issue 02
£15.00
We are delighted to introduce Hidden Scotland magazine to our shop. This is a fantastic way of learning more about the hidden gems all over Scotland. Every edition is packed with content and it doesn’t matter which issue you buy, you are sure to find something you never knew about before!
From the editors of Hidden Scotland:
Spring is a time of rebirth, renewal and revisitation โ and our candy-striped cover star is a fine example. When puffins and other nesting seabirds return to Scotland for their annual residency, itโs a sure sign that the seasons are shifting. For those brief, bright few months, their busy island colonies are a reassurance that the world keeps turning.
Aptly, the themes of nature and connection run through this issue. We look at ways in which you can allow your feral side some freedom โ and boost your wellbeing โ with a focus on wild foraging from expert Leanne Townsend, and a wild swimming feature from acclaimed Taking the Plunge author Anna Deacon, evoking the mixture of calm and euphoria that follows a dip. Adding to the mix is a piece by Emily Rose Mawson on that most elusive of Scottish animals: the wildcat.
Elsewhere, we continue to shine a light on the countryโs different faces, not only showcasing the elemental beauty of its furthest-flung coastlines but exploring the dynamic urban spirit that keeps Glasgow as one of the UKโs most exciting cities. Island life, too, plays a prominent part. On Shetland, locals Misa Hay and Garry Jamieson introduce us to the archipelagoโs deep-rooted knitting traditions, tracing the timeless evolution of island wool from sheep to sweater. Back on the mainland, meanwhile, we follow a creative heritage of a different kind, with a journey of discovery through Speysideโs world-famous malt whisky distilleries.
And thatโs not all. Within the pages of this issue youโll also find age-old folklore, a stirring account of a trip to Fair Isle, a shortbread recipe from the kitchen of Great British Bake Off finalist Flora Shedden, and a tour of Argyllโs storied castles with โThe Castle Hunterโ, David C. Weinczok. Should you be planning a getaway of your own, meanwhile, weโve hand-picked 12 of Scotlandโs most remote accommodation retreats. We think youโll be glad to know about them.
We hope you enjoy the journey.
